Thanks. Accepted as answer as it is a direct alternative to what I was doing in Oracle.

This is an extremely fragile answer - e.g,. if a table called your_table appears in a schema that is higher up in search_path. My PostGIS database has monthly schema, each with identical table names; using this answer, vicmap201208.address would be found before vicmap201910.address because vicmap201208 appears before vicmap201910 on search_path (for good reasons that I wouldn't want to change just to make a bad answer work). [As it happens, the column names are constant across schemas: that's not the point]
